Called the CMP yesterday to check on my Greek FG that was ordered 5 weeks ago. They said they were pretty backed up at the time (Carbine fever, I guess), but did state that almost all of the available Greek FG's were spoken for. The person then went on to say that I MIGHT be offered the choice of accepting a Danish FG, in place of the Greek FG.
My question is: Has anyone actually seen any of the recent stock of Danes, or already recieved one? Does anyone have any info on the Danes. Are these the same Danes that they were selling a few years back, or are they from another "batch" of imports. Also , I keep hearing that some may be fitted with a VAR barrel. What makes the VAR barrel special? Performance, collectability, finish?
Any help appreciated as I would like to get some idea of these before I recieve the offer and have to make a choice. But at this point, If the rifle would be a good shooter, I'll likely take the chance and complete the purchase.
